MOGOLLON, Luisa F. et al. Perforated marginal ulcer after gastric bypass. What is the ideal management? About a case. Cir. cir. [online]. 2020, vol.88, suppl.2, pp.47-51.  Epub Feb 08, 2022. ISSN 2444-054X.  https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.20000255.

In the last decade, marginal ulcers in post-gastric bypass patients have become a much more frequent problem. Multiple risk factors have been described, such as high consumption of tobacco or high consumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), among others. We present a case report of a patient with perforated gastric ulcer in the gastric pouch, with a history of gastric bypass 4 years ago associated with smoking and NSAIDs, so it is taken to laparoscopic management with Graham’s patch management, adequate clinical evolution and resolution of symptoms.

Keywords : Gastric bypass; Laparoscopy; Perforation; Peptic ulcer.
